manteaus. Around on all sides, glorified by the golden gaslight, hang the sh»p#ly turkeys, with orimson l-os-jttes, K!» stars of the Legion of Honor, pinned on their exuberant breasts. Sacredly guarding the dead stand Ue undertakers, commonly known as poultry doaicrsi stout, rubicund, argumentative, lo-nd voiced, and, strange to say, jolly. Wky strange? of course they are jolly, and so would the turkey* be if they were alive! For all the men, women and children in the crowd are intensely jolly, »nd rightly consider that they have not come to witness burial, but an apotheosis of turkeys.

A sad eyod little widow, leading a school girl by the band, is struck with the delicate beauty of a long necked bird, and offers to see that it is buried with the proper ceremonies, but the undertaker says such a luxury will cost her at the rate of, say, eighteen cents a pound. With a sigh she drops the beautiful fowl and takes another less stately and satisfactory, for which she pays sixteen cents a pound. The eighteen cents a pound bird is snapped up by a plethoric, red faced old gentleman, who wears false teeth and a single eyeglass. After him comes a newly married couple, linked arm in arm and carrying two huge baskets. The husband is tall, angular and ugly the bride small, sweet and seductive. Sho yearns for a five dollar bird, whereas he thinks $8.50 will be enough, and that the rest of the money can be spent on groceries. But she makes the turkey's merits so evident to her spouse that lie finally hands over a crisp, new five dollar bill, tucks the bird under his arm and Btridea off to a vegetable stall, where ho pays out $1.25 for celery, sage, cranberries and cauliflowers.

Two young girls who keep house for themselves debate for a quarter of an hour as to whether they shall buy a lean turkey or a fat chicken, and finally buy the chicken. A fractions old gentleman who hears this conversation eschews turkey also, and satisfies himself with a fine looking duck. His wife, a handsome woman, with a red rose in her bonnet, spends nearly half an hour searching for green peas.

A handsome woman, wearing a long sealskin and a queer arrangement of black velvet and crimson ribbon on her head, pays little attention to the turkeys and very much to the crowd. As she stands beside a vegetable 6tall, under the flaring gaslight, her gorgeous headdress and pale, statuesque face form a striking contrast to the forest of green behind her, and a painter who could utilize the scene ought to make a small fortune out of *t.

Busy as the markets are during the day, they are ten times more busy during the evening. Along the gaalit aisles of Washington market passes a great throng of men and women, their eyes fixed on the long lines of decorated turkeys, chickens, ducks and gee6e, and their ears apparently deaf to the honeyed invitations of the blue shirted plethoric dealers, who are never tired of expatiating on the succulence, freshness and general beauty of their goods. Now and then a woman will stop, lay down her basket, feel the breast of a turkey with the thumb and forefinger of her right hand, inquire its price, expostulate at the dearness, hesitate a moment or two and then draw out her purse and march homeward with the coveted fowl in her possession. Men buy too, and so do not a few young girls and boys.

All seem to get just what they want, and not many discontented or dissatisfied faces are to be seen at any time at any of the markets.

What right has any one who is discontented or who hasn't the wherewithal to buy a turkey in the big markets on Thanksgiving eve? They are not wanted here, and the plenty that is so free to the more fortunate would simply make thein more discontented.

It is late, very late, when the crowd of buyers begins to grow less, and it is much later when the last cash transaction has been made. How many of the buyers have thought as they provided for their own Thanksgiving cheer of the thousands who will eat no turkey on the morrow?

No one can answer this question, but we know that some have we lmow that many baskets have been carried away from the great markets laden with good things for others than the purchasers we know that while the ostensible spirit of thankfulness has been quite smothered in many abreast by the spirit of selfish anticipation of good things to eat on the morrow, many a table scantily spread on most days will then groan under good things thoughtfully and unobtrusively provided by generous hands and hoarts and purses.

And there is no better time, well fed reader, whether you live in town or country, for you to mingle generosity to your less fortunate friends with thankfulness for your own material prosperity than this Thanksgiving seavrea.

Thanksi^iving is really the highest devotion, the truest mark of the true Christian. It consists, moreover, not of speech only, but of action, of thank offering as well as thanksgiving. So this present great annual national day of thanksgiving ought to bring forth abundant treasure from those on whom God has bestowed his blessing.

Thanksgiving would not be Thanksgiving without its turkey and ftxin'*. Who does not raneuiber who eon look back to an old-faAioned Tkunkagiving at a New England homeatead, with what anxiety h« awaited the opsning of the great bricfe crvwit Vary eaiigr in the roaring fire of wood was b-aiH is tho oven. A couple of hours Istfar th« embers and ashes would be removed and the bottom of Che oven carefully sw®pt with a turkey's wing.

Then came the procession of good tilings, the turkeys, the chicken pies, the ajjplc, mince and punapkin pies and all the rest, and disappeared In the cavernous depths. Mysterious sounds and frnjjrant odors cwme from those same depths ever and anon, a« some matron approached and, opening the iron door, peered in for a moment.

TUB WELCOME IMNNBR nORN. The boys and girls could scarcely wait for the clow process of baking to be performed properly. Driven at last from tho kitchen by their elders, they took refuge iu the attic, whei-o they rummaged to their hearts' delight or in the outer air, where they passed the time in playing those time honored games of "two-old-cat" or "bam tick." Tlioy were never too diligently employed at either of these occupations to hear the dinner hom. They responded promptly when its melodious tones burst upon the air but paused decorously at the door of the great kitchen.

What a scene burst upon their eyes and what odors delighted their sensesl The long table, formed of all the tables in the house set in a row, was covered with spotless linen. At either end and in the center a huge turkey thrust his crisped legs appealingly in the air, while midway upon each side reposed a great chicken pio, with a diamond shaped hole cut carefully in the flaky top. Dishes of white potatoes, golden squash, pale yellow turnips, fragrant onions and crimson cranberry sauce held their appropriate places, while bowls of gravy and great branches of celery filled the intervening spaces.

THE SCIENTIFIC) CAKVKB.

The curved outlines of those mammoth gobblers were soon lost under the knife of the carver. In every family there is always one if not more who prides himself upon his skill at carving. "Always insert your fork with the tines upon either side of the breast bone, and, once inserted, do not remove it until the carving is completed. Remove a leg and a wing first, then carve the breast upon the same side. Out long, thin, smooth slices, and do not mangle the flesh When one side is thoroughly carved begin on the other, if the waiting appetites will allow." These are the instructions that the experienced carver will always give between the strokes of his keen blade.

After the turkey and "fixinV had been disposed of, and everybody helped twice, the dishes were removed and the pies brought on.

THE OLORY OF THE MINCE PTE.

Who can fitly describe the glories of the mince pie of our grandmothers? We never have such snowstorms nowadays as we used to have when we were boys the woods are never so brilliant as they were then the fish never bite so quickly, and the chestnuts and shagbarks are never so fat and luscious as when we used to find them under the leaves. So, too, the mince pie of toduy is thin, flat and insipid and bears no resemblance to those which used to come out, smoking and fragrant, from the old brick oven. They needed no brandy "to make them keep." They were for the present use only. But it cannot be denied that the cider in the barrel in the shed was slightly lowered when a batch of pies was made ready for the baking.

As for the pumpkin pies, what a rich golden color they had, so different from the sickly yellow of the modern marrowfat squash. How those pumpkins used to glow as they lay in the field ripening slowly in the late sunshine and growing sweeter with the early frosts.

And the apples, too how we watched them as they grew redder and redder as the autumn advanced, until they reached just the exact tint of perfection. How we used to climb the trees and drop them into the blue checked gingham aprons that the girls sv.'-«lied bplow.

Aft1-*! the ui.lv in the woods and raisins from the grocer's cart. And then came the season of meditation. Somehow it always happenod that the boys did not feel just irke finishing that game of "two-old-cat" directly after dinner. They climbed to the mow and stretched themselves in the fragrant hay or took a walk in the woods, scaring out a rabbit or a partridge, and coming home with handfuls of checkerberry leayes, or sassafras, or birch bark.

IN THE FIRELIGHT.

As night drew on a formal supper was dispensed with. Doughnuts and cheese and pies would be spread upon the table I for those who wished. But they were 1 not in great demand. A little later the family were all assembled in the parlor, and thero wore charades and character sketches and songs by the young folks, I while their elders sat around the great fire upon the hearth.—Boston Record.

Finally, toward the ekise of the day, Dcc. 11, 1353, Yolnrrteiws from the Seventh Michigan, N'inetecnfch Massachusetts and Eighty-ninth New York braved the sharpshooters' fire and pushed across in boats, driving oft' the riflemen, Barksdalels.Mij»sis*qprpijMaftT awi completely clearing the river fen- the engineers.

Miwye's Hill, or Height, did net axtavd over more-tbau a division Iron* at tmrtrreope, and a division was not a fcwestteth part of tho am v. But slight thoi&sfe it ttpj^eared against the great bttuhgnmnd of hillside its situation betv.'otm two bills, Taylor's aad Telegraph (afterward called Lee'»i, made it a key, and that fact, together with it* erident importance to Lee, shown by the care oxpended on the defenses around it, caused the soldiers who considered it as a point to be passed, of course at any hazard, to scan it minutely. It did not compare with South Mountain, Maryland, in height, nor in abruptness, and the majority of them had takcu part in the assaults there, a few weeks before, in the Aotietam campaign.

The day of crossing passed without attack, but our whole lrne wae subjected to artillery fire. Early on the 13th the Union left wins ad-vanced direct in front and fought a desperate battle with "Stonewall" Jaeltson and were repulsed. While th?s movement was in progress against Lee's right flauk the troops in front of Marye's, who had been ordered into readiness to charge, stood in suspense. They were the divisions of French and Hancock of the Second corps, at this time commanded by Gen. D. N. Couch. Tha order to advance came to the troops about noon as they we re in close cohrmn on the edge of the town. No reconnaissance of the ground to be gone over had been made, for the reason that it was under lire of the enemy and was exposed to a scrutiny tbroogh the field glass that seemed to uncover every obstacle important to be considered. Apparently it was a clear field except the usual fences and small buildings, and when this-cleared ground should be passed a short sharp run would take the assailants up the slopes to the Confederate lines.

The storming column was led by Gen. Nathan Kimball's brigade, the Fourteenth Indiana, Tweuty-fotrrfhand Twenty-eighth New Jersey, Fourth and Eighth Ohio and Seventh West Virginia. Then followed Col. O. H. Palmer's brigade, the Fourteenth Connecticut, One Hundred and Eighth New York and One Hundred and Thirtieth Pennsylvania. Col. John W. Andrews' brigade, the First Delaware, Fourth and Tenth New York and One Hundred and Thirty-second Pennsylvania, closed the dlvision of French, who opened the rlL, moving at what is ealiod brigade front, the several regiments of each brigade in a line. Kimball had not proceeded over 300 yards before the first hidden obstruction of the field destroyed bitr format: .\i. This was a canal too wide and deep to he passed without breaking up the column and moving by the flank across some narrow bridges. The new movement exposed the men to the fire of artillery on the heights. But shot and shell, though ploughing their ranks, did not stop them. On they went to a slight rise of ground 150 yards to the front, where they reformed, and then far the charge.

ball's few survivors, still dinging their colors, were the last to fall in. But the Confederates have been re-enfor«*d at the stone wall and their gmmmiHiau replenished. Such daring as French's ne* have shown and Hancock's wiTl imitate has fairly alarmed the Confederate cotDmanders, and the stone wall and sunhen road arc strengthened for tho next chwrge.

Other charges were made by Howard's division of the Sccond -corps, an* bySykcs' and Humphreys' of the lifth. They ware brave movements in the face of the dread ful havoc that had gone before, but the deeds of French and Hancock could not be surpassed their heroic dead marked the limits made in the advance. No embellishment could be added to their simple record more startling than ttie actual figures of losses in Hancock's division, where they equaled those in any two of the others.

Hancock took into action 6,000 men and lost 2,080 in killed and wounded. The Fifty-third Pennsylvania lost 8 officers out of 14 and one-half its men. The Seventh New York lost 18 officers out of 25 and very nearly half its men. The Fifth New Hampshire lost 17 officers out of S3 and over half its men. It had five commanders during tho action, the first four being killed or wounded. The Shcty-ninth New York lost 10 officers out of 10 and ovor half its men, and had four commanders in the action. The Eighty-eighth New York lost half its complement of officers and men. The One Hundred and Forty-fifth Pennsylvania lost nearly 50 per cent, and the One Hundred and Sixteenth lost heavily, having four dillerent commanders during tho engagement.

The Twenty-eighth Massachusetts lost nearly half its nntnber, and the Second Delaware suffered severely, having two of its commanders wounded. The Eightyfirst Pennsylvania lost twelve officers out of sixteen and over half its men, and had three commanding onicers wounded. The Fifty-seventh New York lost nine officers out of elereu, two of its commanders among them. The Sixty-sixth New York lost heavily and had three ooinmanders killed or wounded. There was none of the excitement of a hotly contested battle to inspire these men, no dazzling prize balanced in the air to be seized by the bravest and the quickest. Before them lay the stubborn hills, the silent camion and the sullen enemy. In marching on them they marched into the jaws of death as grandly as over men did on earth.
